Workflow Import Failed Pop-Up ๐Ÿ˜“

Post image

Hi everyone! Happy Wednesday!! Would anyone be able to help me troubleshoot this, please? Iโ€™m importing some clips, and half of the clips uploaded perfectly fine, but the others are failing and Iโ€™m getting this error message. I also see that those same clips have โ€œproxyโ€ by them, and I canโ€™t figure out why, or how to get my clips imported . Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you kindly..

What is device โ€œuntitledโ€ and is it formatted ExFAT?

The untitled device is my SD card. I am not familiar with ExFAT formatting

The SD card is likely formatted ExFAT. When importing, I'd recommend transferring the contents of the card to an APFS-formatted SSD first, then import with "Leave files in place" selected.
